cant wait for this game..

i dont mind either way regarding chat. voice chat should be available.

but i’ve played EQOA and FFXI on the ps2 with keyboard chat only. old ps2 socom games were in game voice chat but lobby was text chat. matter of fact the socom fans over at the playstation forums want text chat in the lobby back.

i dont mind either way but i get turned off by online games if the person on the other end is just yelling, humming singing or just wants to show how grown up they are by cursing..

I doubt there will be any cheating on this game because it’s not made by Sega and PS3 is not easily hacked. Also there is no PC version of this game so hopefully we don’t have to deal with cheaters.

I’m a little worried about online and offline character/items, being transferable and stored on the player’s machine. Phantasy Star Online comes to mind. The cheating in that game was almost unbearable. I hope I’m wrong, because this sounds interesting.

@ikiryou: I know many female gamers often refuse to use voice chat because it often results in harrassing (sexually or not). I myself don’t play online much so I’ve never encountered the problem.

as much as I understand their point, I still think voice chat would be very usefull, trying to play a game and type simulantiously just doesn’t work to well.

For some reason, there doesn’t seem to be many PSN players who actually *want* to use voice chat :/ I’ve seen this with Unreal Tournament 3, Warhawk and recently with Armored Core4A. A friend at work interested in getting Warhawk stated outright that he wasn’t even interested in communicating with other players [there is team play in Warhawk, hello??].

I would think that a co-op mode would almost require something like communication to be effective [in other words, "voice chat please?"]. I might need to look for a Level5 official fan board and nag them a little *whistles*.

I hope that they include voice chat. That’s sort of… well, I’d hope that we’re at the point where something like that is a required feature already.

I’d love to have a Monster Hunter for the PS3, but this would definitely fill that role and then some, very nicely.

Thanks for presenting this info ^_^
